A Grand Day Out

Today we took a day off and went out for a bit. It is very hard to take a break when there is so much to do, but we do need a little downtime now and then. So we drove up to the reservoir just outside Barlevento. Around the lake is a picnic area with barbecue pits and a cafe. We had a wander round followed by a coffee then drove along the old road round the north of the island this road is very narrow and winding, but some of the views are spectacular. We had a spot of lunch in Santa Domingo which is the main town in the district of Garafia where we live. Got home and sorted out a bit but later on I felt a little low, couldn't really put a finger on why.

Here at Last

Well here I am I have been here living on the island of La Palma for a little over a week now. It has had it's ups and downs getting here has been a lot more stressful than I would have liked but I am slowly begining to relax a little. I haven't had much time to blog recently due to moving and now I am here I can only get online once in a while.
